Countryside living 11 miles north of Grants Pass
In the mid-1800s, settlers and their wagons came through the Pleasant Valley area and decided to stay, taking advantage of homestead laws in the new state of Oregon. Today, tending to the land is still a way of life in this sparsely populated, rural neighborhood. True to its name, the neighborhood is in a flat, bucolic valley surrounded by tree-covered hills. Many residents live on fenced-in properties where horses graze and chickens peck the ground. Commercial centers and social hubs don’t exist in Pleasant Valley, but the city of Grants Pass is just 11 miles south.

A lot of families go there.” An antique tractor parade takes place over Father’s Day weekend, complete with live music and local vendors.
